Boring and only good for a bucket list check off to say you went. Not worth the time. - The Palace was just one of those bucket places to check off the list that now looking back I would probably have skipped for a different experience. It’s a bunch of walking through bedrooms and seeing where the royals slept and art. It’s really not all that amazing. Everyone in our group young and old looked unenthusiastic and bored . Some cool photo ops inside and a nice lunch inside of Angelina’s. Our tour guide was so so.

What should have been a wonderful experience was spoilt by rude staff at gate B - The palace and gardens are stunning but our group was left traumatised by the rudeness /officiousness and inefficiency of the staff on Gate B. Palace 5 stars …. Staff 1 star so unfortunately it’s an average of 3 stars !
